Managing Relationships
Introduction
Relationships differ throughout our life from birth. We have friendships which are freely chosen, we have family which establishes the growth of individuals, we have romance which is where we commit and are intimate with someone, we have professional which is on a business level. We all have relationships that stand out in our lives and a couple of them have lasted a lifetime and the others were short but left a memory that will live forever in my paper I will discuss one of the relationships where and how it started and where it still is almost thirty years …show more content…
Along with power in a
relationship there has to be respect and if the power is used negatively eventually one of the
people involved will get tired and again the relationship will end.
Improvement
An area for improvement in this relationship is listening and respecting each other’s
feelings and decisions no matter whether we agree with it or not as it our human right to
feel the way we feel and no one no matter who they are has the right to disrespect it. Being open

And to find a common solution that everyone can agree on and initiate. Managing conflict will
help us to be able to not get so upset and hurt where we can still voice our thoughts and opinions
respect the difference if we think differently. Managing conflict will also require good listening
skills and self-control this will us to handle difficult and tense situations, see potential conflict
before it starts, it will help us to have an open discussion on circumstances, and it will be more of
a winning situation. (Goleman, 2009)
Team work and collaboration model respect, helpfulness, and cooperation. Both work and
home are happier when these conditions are met. When people work well together, turnover and
the productivity of the goal ahead increases. It is well known that emotions are contagious and
that if one person in a group is unhappy it can make everyone unhappy. To improve my
relationship skills I will want my best friend to be able to turn towards me rather than away
